HT5192 What is the easiest and fastest way for me to get the iOS 5.1 update for my ipad2?

What is the easiest and fastest way for me to get the iOS 5.1 update for my ipad2? I am non tech savvy and am a new user to apple devices.

If you are already running iOS 5 on your iPad go to Setrings>General>aoftware Update and you can update over the air via WiFi. If you are not running iOS 5 you have to connect the iPad to your computer and update via iTunes.

  • What is the easiest and best way to install or open flash drive in Sarfari on my Macbook Pro...2010 model using mountain lion

    what is the easiest and best way to install or open flash drive in Sarfari on my 2010 macbook pro using mountain lion?

    There is no really good way to do what you want. Any tracks you purchase via your own iTunes Store account are for your personal use, tied to your iTunes Store account, and can't be given to anyone else. If you don't want to gift the tracks to her and can't access her iTunes Store account, the only option other than creating her a completely new iTunes Store account (which will require a new email address for her) is to buy the CDs those tracks are on.

  • What is the easiest and best way to upgrade Mac OS X 10.5.8 to Lion?

    What is the easiest and best way to upgrade Mac OS X 10.5.8 to Lion?

    Make sure your Mac meets Lion's requirements >  Apple - OS X Lion - Technical specifications
    Since you are running v10.5.8, you need to upgrade to Snow Leopard which installs the Mac App Store which you need in order to download and install Lion.
    Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.)
    If you don't have a high speed internet connection, you may want to purchase Lion on Lion USB Thumb Drive - Apple Store (U.S.)

  • Hi, I want to rebuild my g/f's lost itunes as a surprise. What is the easiest and stealthiest way to buy tracks via my macbook for her itunes?

    Hi,
    I want to rebuild my g/f's lost itunes as a surprise. What is the easiest and stealthiest way to buy tracks via my macbook for her itunes? To be clear I don't want to buy her vouchers I want to buy the songs myself. I don't have access to her itunes account and to ask would give the game away. I don't want to own or listen to the songs myself but I struggle to think of an approach that doesn't involve some sort of piracy.
    She currently has zero tracks having lost them all so the only thing I can think of is starting an entirely new account in her name and filling it and then giving it to her on a hard drive. Is this the best way to go about it?
    Many thanks,
    Andrew

  • What is the easiest and faster way to organize my itunes library

    I've been building my itunes library for many years and for many reasons this library has become a complete chaos. I have around 50,000 songs, which 10,000 of those I can't locate the file in my hard drive maybe for the following reasons:
    - the incomplete transfer of data from my old imac to the new one (besides loosing music files, I lost a ton of pictures and docs)
    - the internal hard drive got full and had to delete all the storaged data
    - change of location for my backup files. Locations were first the internal hard drive and after that the external 3T hard drive
    - unknown computer behavoir. The computer changed the location within the external hard drive
    Also, duplicate files that need to be deleted, those are around 2,000 more and less
    I thought about just coping all my media files to an external hard drive, clean my itunes account of all those files down to cero and reload the media files into my account making sure all those files are located and stay in only one place.
    All of this is time consuming which i  don't have and I would like to see if there's a better wayt to organize it either using an external software or any other way I'm nopt aware of.
    Any ideas?.......

    I like to go via computer first in most cases and then Bluetooth, SD and SIM cards but it is what you can handle and have to work with also.  Wish you the best.

  • HT201303 i bought a gift card and itunes is not letting me buy the song without seuring my billing info if i put the cash on the card and redeemed it why cant i get the songs

    can someone help me
    i cant buy the songs on itunes without securing billing info i put cash on a itunes card i cant get it to work i already redeemed it i have the money on my account whats going on

    Please try the following steps,
    1) Visit the My Apple ID website at:
    http://appleid.apple.com
    2) If the site is not displayed in your preferred language, click the Change Language link in the upper-right corner, type the name of your language in the field that appears, then click the Save button.
    3) Click the "Manage your account" link.
    4) Type your iTunes Store account name (which is your Apple ID) in the Apple ID field, type your password in the password field, then click the Sign In button.
    5) Click "Addresses" in the column on the left. If you have multiple shipping addresses, remove any out-of-date or duplicate addresses by clicking Delete. Also, make sure the state or province field is filled out correctly for each address. To edit an address, click Edit. Edit all of your shipping addresses and make sure the appropriate state is selected in the State drop-down menus.
    6) Now click "Phone Numbers" on the left. The area codes should be in the area code fields and the phone numbers should be in the phone number fields. If an area code is missing, or if it is in a phone number field, your account information may not save properly.
    7) Make any other necessary corrections, then click the Save Changes button.
    8) Click Log out in the upper-right corner.
    When you make your next purchase on the iTunes Store, you will be asked to review your billing information. At this point, you can change your information or simply click Done at the bottom of the screen to proceed. Once you click Done, you should be able to purchase on the iTunes Store using your store credit.

  • HT1725 itunes keeps giving me an error message that "Your Apple ID has been disabled".  I have tried changing the password and billing information, but continue to get the error message.

    I have been trying to download items from itunes store, but keep getting the error message "your Apple ID has been disabled.  I changed the password and updated billing information, but still get this error message.  This involves free apps which I was trying to install.

    I am having the same problem.  I went through the process to have the ID unlocked (Changing password etc.) and was able to log in here on the website to post this message.  Why am I still getting "Your Apple ID has been disabled" as a message after verifying the account here and signing in and out on my Device.  This has been issue on my Ipad as well. 
    Thanks.

  • When I send a PDF by email the recipient sees only a blank form on the iPhone and iPad. This has only occurred since IOS 7 was updated

    When I send a PDF attachment by email the recipient sees only a blank unfilled form. This has only occurred since IOS 7 was updated. The email with the PDF when recieved by my MAC is OK, but my phone and iPad are not!
    Any advise would be appreciated.

    I have the same problem.  Sought to insert a pdf into Apple Mail after editing a form pdf and only the blank form shows.  I didn't use Preview to generate the form, just Acrobat.  And, the filled in form inserts perfectly into an email when I use Outlook for Mac.  Problem only with Apple Mail.

  • What's the easiest ( and cheapest ) way to re-partition my boot drive I don't need an old partition any more.

    I partiotioned a small amount of space to keep some old Snow Leopard apps that I found I don'r need any more and would lie to reclaim that space on on my boot drive. Thanks.

    It's easy to delete that partition. See > http://pondini.org/OSX/DU4.html
    Then, you will have to resize your first partition in order to use all the storage with it

  • I want to document everything I eat for my diet, what is the simplest and efficient way to do this, especially the wording

    I dont know if I should add it to notes, or calendar date. By the way, I tried the app, lose it. I didnt like it. I especially interested in the terminology. I find with Siri, the proper word sequence is critical.

    I work with program/process design for large federal projects.
    I am working on modifying one of the processes needed for a database copy.
    The one thing I learned years ago, and have re-learned during this process, is that nothing beats a documentation process you create yourself.  You already learned that someone else's brain-child of a recording process does nto always work for another.
    I have 2 Excel spreadsheets used to "incrementally build" the final list of commands I need, but it uses several TABs on two separate Excel spreadsheets and many cell-fomulas on one TAB that refer to other TABs.
    In short, ask yourself how you would record the food/calories you eat, and start building the process.  You may be very surprised at how talented you really are at creating effective processes.

  • Best and fastest way to export HD Video

    What is the best and fastest way to export HD video once I have finished editing it. I shot the footage in 720p30 on an HD camera, now I am just looking for the quickest way to get this out the door, any ideas?

    And compressing DVCPRO HD to DVD isn't a quick process. it took me 13 hours for 90 min. With the specs you see below.
    But to us, it is worth every minute.
    We see a qualitative difference in DVDs whose source is 720/24pn on our component out DVD player to a Fijitsu plasma.
    I swear that it is not much different than the original DVCProHD footage out the component of the cam.
    Shane is responsible for educating and encouraging us to move to the HVX200.
    We intend, of course, to send the purchase price bill for cam and cards to him.

  • I have a mid year 2007 24 inch iMac and will be purchasing a new 27 inch Retina iMac, what is the easiest way to transfer the data and files from my old machine to the new one?

    I have a mid year 2007 24 inch iMac and will be purchasing a new 27 inch Retina iMac, what is the easiest way to transfer the data and files from my old machine to the new one?

    Following up on this thread,
    I have a new iMac on the way and my current is from 2008, never had a problem but I am sure there are internal issues that I would prefer not to transfer.
    I have no issues other then the slowness in certain programs and that is the main reason to buy a new one.
    Programs like numbers and pages seem to take a longer time to open after I update to Yosemite.
    I only use 272GB of 500 GB, my memory is 4GB and I am upgrading to 8Gb and bought the 4.0 processor.
    Question:
    Is there a way to manually transfer items or would that be a waste of time in that if there are issues they could be anywhere and would transfer anyway?
